Jean-Pierre Friedman
@jean-pierrefriedman
Pharmaceutical regulatory consultant at George Washington Medical Faculty Associates, reviewing FDA labeling and payer criteria for complex drug approvals.
What I'm looking for
At George Washington Medical Faculty Associates, I compared clinical documentation and FDA-approved indications with payer coverage policies to support prior authorizations, denials, renewals, and appeals. I also identified suspected adverse drug events and prepared FDA MedWatch safety reports.
My work spans drug safety, pharmacy practice, and consumer health product development. For my MSc in Cosmetic Science research project, I formulated and evaluated a CBD-oil-containing hair conditioner, and at L’ORÉAL UK & IRELAND I presented scientific evidence on dermatology products to clinicians.
